The I AM Still IS!


Read Philippians 3:10

This Sunday is Easter. We will celebrate the resurrection of our King. It is exciting to know that Jesus is not a dead god that we can purchase on the back shelf of a specialty store in the local mall, but that He is alive and in control.
With so many philosophies in the world today, I am glad that I know Him. The Creator of all things became a man so that I could be redeemed. He is not some entity in the far off distance, but He is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. He is not some unknown, but He is known through the revelation of His spirit. He is all powerful. He is all loving. He is just. He is righteous. He is the great physician. He is the beginning and He is the end. He is the lion and he is the lamb. He is lily of the valley and the bright morning star. He is the chief cornerstone. He is the living water. He is the bread of life.
He is the bridegroom. He is the way. He is the truth. He is the life. He is wonderful. He is counselor. He is the Almighty. He is the mediator. He is the branch. He is the everlasting Father. He is the prince of peace. He is goodness. He is mercy. He is everything and anything you need Him to be in your life. The I AM of the Old Testament is still the I AM for whatever we need today.
I do not know what you need today, but I want to remind you of this one fact; the stone at Jesus’ tomb was just a pebble to the Rock of ages inside.

“A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell.”
- C. S. Lewis
